It's only been 2-weeks since the GB ended and invoices went out and as these are coming from Thailand they can take up to 3-weeks. If you are concerned then PM Ironbridge directly but you shouldn't worry yet. It takes a couple of days for him to get them out and from the polished nuts group buy I only know of one that has yet to arrive.

Hey guys, generally about 1 - 2 weeks is the normal time. Anything after that and there may be a problem so it's best to drop me a PM and I can chase everything up and check it hasn't been returned back to us or something.

You're missing a rear tow hook, and then it would fit like this...

Not yet mate. I'm afraid it's a case of too many projects and not enough time!

JonMc is correct, you seem to be missing the OEM hook. Without it you won't be able to use aftermarket tow hooks.

Just responding to your post above.
Just a point I must admit I also thought the tow hook bolted to the mounting points for the standard tow hook. I will make up an alloy bracket but is it possible to make a bracket that matches the tow hook, for me the idea was more weight saving than asthetics but in fact this way there is no saving.

In all honesty an alloy bracket would weigh the same as the OEM hook probably, it would have to be quite substantial.

You're correct that there's no weight saving, the hook weighs about 400 grams, the main benefit is that your rear bumper doesn't get damaged if you do need to be towed.
